The first of a short series I wrote about prepping your documents for translation just went live on KJInternational.com.
The article links to a fabulous post on Microsoft's official blog that gives a succinct list of style principals for globalized writing, including a specific set of guidelines for text that will be machine translated or translated using CAT tools. It's most of Chapter 3 from the 4th Edition of the Microsoft Manual of Style.
